How to paint watercolour botanicals

This is a
ClassBento
LiveBox
class!
From the comfort of your home, share an artisan experience with your friends, family or colleagues, or just
enjoy with some like-minded others.
As seen on The Guardian, TimeOut, Broadsheet, Concrete Playground, Sydney Morning Herald, The Age, and more.
Here's how it works:

Book or Request your preferred time

We'll deliver a
ClassBento
Box to you
- this is a physical DIY craft box containing the materials you'll need.
Shipping is free, and you'll get your box delivered in time for your class. We ship nationwide.

Enjoy the online class. You'll receive
a link to a Zoom meeting. On the day of the class, use that link to join the class. Class sizes are kept small, so you can easily ask questions and get immediate responses.
Zoom is free and easy to use, on any device - smartphone, tablet or laptop. You're in control of your privacy - you can mute yourself and hide your webcam if and when you prefer.

What you'll do

In this class, you will be shown the basic techniques to create gorgeous native Australian flowers using a range of simple watercolour techniques. This class has especially been re-worked for the Paintbar as we want to celebrate our Australian flora! It will be delivered via a 2 hour interactive zoom class. You will get a bird eye view of your teacher, and also have the opportunity to ask questions and get feedback during regular scheduled segments.

Carlie is an expert teacher who will systematically teach you the basic building blocks of working with watercolours.

She will then help you work on a range of different floral examples (giving you a chance to put these techniques in practice). She can give you as much or as little guidance as you want! There will be an opportunity within the class time-frame to work on two 5"X7" images.

We have a big focus on equipping you with the skills to try watercolours on your own. We will provide you with a take-home material list so you can continue exploring on your own!

My daughter Lucinda did the course together! Was her First Mother’s Day present to her. I was surprised how much we achieved in 2 hours . Great clear instructions. Would have liked if the instructor could have zoomed in but know not possible. I made my gumnut picture into a birthday card for my son in law. He wants to frame it ( I said not that good)! Not so pleased with banksia , wrong shape and too much paint. Have not used water colour for a long time. Will be trying again! Thanks to the team. Could only submit one photo?

Great teacher. Fast and flowy class. The class was a fantastic meditative experience, the 2 hours flew by.

I thoroughly enjoyed this class and experience and learnt a lot. I hope that there will be more zoom classes in the future. I will definitely be recommending the class to others!

Fun class! Well structured and informative water colour session. The demonstrations and naration gave lots of ideas and techniques which I will be able to carry on using- not just a one off experience! Thanks a lot.
